In regards about descending to Mulkey Meadows and doing the loop back to rail Pass. The packers frequently descend the trail, so following he trail is much easier once they start the season.

Today’s hike was uneventful....ran into 5 PCT hikers. All skipping resupply at Horseshoe Meadows but exiting Onion Valley.

Came down Mulkey over the weekend, very easy trail to follow and clearly marked all the way down. Would require some real effort to lose the trail. Crossed two tiny streams of water. Was surprised to see so very few cars in the parking lot given that it was a holiday weekend.
